I admire your purity. I admire your privilege. I'm too f****** poor to leave. I have children.

I have fear of the future, and I'm doing everything I can.

You're admiring your own politics like narcissus admiring his reflection.

Coming back to Blue sky was a mistake. I am sick and tired of this civil war on the left. Fuck everybody.

People are going to die, and y'all are shitting on each other to hide your own fucking fears.

Trump is the enemy, but he's not on Blue sky, and tankies have to hate somebody.

I asked for evidence. If that makes me a whiny little b****, then f*** you, and f*** the horse you rode in on

Hey. This should go without saying, but I guess I got to say it: if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.

If you have the opportunity to derail the train before it hits somebody, and you don't, you're part of the problem.

Voter abstention is either the mark of the socially dead or the extremely privileged. It is the right of the slave, or the master.

The rest of us vote.

In other words, I get why Frank Wilderson doesn't vote. I don't agree, but I get it.

You and me should vote.

We are not good people. Deportation is a crime against humanity, it is wrong, it is evil, and anyone who supports it with an apologist for human rights violations. They deserve to lose their home, their jobs, and every f****** document that makes them so privileged.

Then I'm a useless moron.

In America, voting for president is a zero-sum game. If you don't understand that, that's okay. It hurts. It sucks. Life is hard, and not everybody understands basic game theory.

Some people admire their reflection too much.

You voted for Trump. Calling me vapid and a twit might be true, but it doesn't change the fact that you had an opportunity to stop Trump, and instead you voted for yourself, and your own purity. Bravo. The people of Palestine are dying and you vote for the guy who uses Palestinian as a slur.

Well, the thing is, I asked for evidence and I got blocked.

This civil war on the left is f****** pathetic.

Apparently, Asking for evidence gets you blocked by Adam.

Because Mercury was in retrograde. Actually I have no idea, I'm just asking for evidence. I'm tired of everyone deciding that Kamala Harris won because she wasn't their own idea of perfection.

The 14th amendment is clear, and this act is clearly unconstitutional. Of course, the 14th amendment is clear and Trump's second term is clearly unconstitutional.

The Constitution is pretty clear, the Supreme Court is pretty corrupt.

But seriously, equal protection should mean equal protection.

I wish. I wish being disabled in only one way was all I had to deal with (and all you had to deal with!).

Deportation is always a crime against humanity. Exile is always wrong. The fact that so many Americans supported is absolutely damning of America.

The nation state system, as championed by America, has undermined humanity's basic values.

To understand, see the Hebrew Bible, or the works of Homer.

Please provide the objective data which you refer to. Please explain to me exactly how many voters, objectively, building a larger coalition cost Kamala Harris versus helped her. I want to see the breakdown by the numbers.

Likely a nice break. Urban life must have been f****** hell for horses.

"Separating the person from the disability to give it a less prominent stance." Instead it does exactly the opposite, because that's how language works. The goal itself is suspect. Why would I want to separate the person from the disability when I'm talking about our rights?

Agreed. Deportation is an echo of the crimes of Sodom.

No, instead you voted for Trump. Don't tell me you didn't, you did. Jesus f****** Christ.

Deportation is always wrong. Always. Always.

Ok. I do take it at face value. I believe you think that limiting immigration is in your economic interest. You are wrong. I believe that you believe that, but you are wrong.

All borders are violence. All workers live on the same planet. The immigrant is not your enemy, the billionaires are.

Do you know what this sounds like to me? This sounds like an organized PR campaign.

TRUMP RAN THE MOST TRANSPHOBIC CAMPAIGN IN HISTORY, HARRIS REPEATEDLY PUSHED BACK, YOU JUST DIDN'T HEAR IT.

Why? Disinformation.

I'm going to take a break from Bluesky for a week. I need to think about this.

*debate.

I guess you didn't watch the debates.

I'm queer. My children are queer. I wasn't on Twitter, TikTok or any social media.

Trump's entire campaign, to me, was anti-trans. Harris repeatedly stood up for trans people.

The entire narrative that Harris was anti-trans, is some seriously online b*******. It's f***** up, and it makes me mad.

Rainbow flag.

Let's assume he has it. Let's assume he has the money. He doesn't, but let's assume for a second he does.

Every dollar that is paid to Rudy has to go to Rudy's creditors, and Rudy's creditors are people that Trump hates.

It's racism.

Donald Trump, apparently you owe him money. You really could start there.

We all know the reason you don't try to help Rudy is because you don't want a dollar of your money to go to Ms. Freeman and Ms. Moss.

Make them whole, save your friend. It's the right thing to do.

Yes. Workers are racist. Yes the majority of Americans are racist. I'm using that as an adjective, not a noun.

If the reaction to that critique is to shut down, and ignore further conversation, that's also racism.

Racism is not a slur, it is a problem to solve.

The reason that people are willing to believe that immigrants are bad for the economy and children are good for the economy is racism.

The entire framework of the discussion is racist.

It's not really appropriate to talk about an individual's racism in this context.
